I would advise you to seek medical help immediately for the groin pain. Although it can be something as simple as a hernia as another surgeon has suggested, you must rule out something much more serious such as a large blood clot- as this could be life threatening. Seek medical help today!

It sounds like you are dealing with two separate issues. An examination would be of great benefit. Groin pain is a bit unusual after a Breast Reduction. you could have a groin hernia exacerbated by constipation?? Please ask your surgeon to address your concerns at your next visit. Best,
